Key Components of the Standards Focus and coherence • A focus on key topics at each grade level • Coherent progressions across grade levels Balance of concepts and skills • Requirement of both conceptual understanding and
procedural fluency in the content standards Mathematical practices • Reasoning and sense-making in mathematics College and career readiness • Ambitious but achievable level

Standards for Mathematical Practice
Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them. Reason abstractly and quantitatively. Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others. Model with mathematics. Use appropriate tools strategically. Attend to precision. Look for and make use of structure. Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning.

Why?
Learning Outcomes Learner and the Learning Environment • Characterize problem-solving experiences that require math
reasoning and communication.
• Choose and adapt mathematical tasks and questions to promote deeper levels of student understanding and thinking and prepare students for Next Generation Assessments.
Content Knowledge • Give examples of how the mathematics standards in the
Common Core State Standards exhibit focus and coherence.

PG page 5
Learning Outcomes Research-Based Instructional Strategies • Explain the role talk has in supporting learning of
mathematics.
Data and Differentiation • Use strategies to help ALL students deepen and
communicate their reasoning.

Logical Reasoning and Classroom Discourse
13
Positive Influences of Math Discourse
• Talk can reveal understanding and misunderstanding.
• Talk supports robust learning by boosting memory.
• Talk supports deeper reasoning.
• Talk supports language development.
• Talk supports the development of social skills. 14

Kindergarten Example: How many students are wearing shoelaces?
• What mathematics are the kindergarteners talking about?
• How does the teacher help Maimouna clarify and share her thoughts?
• How does the teacher help the class orient to the thinking of Maimouna?
18
Which is more, nine or five? T: Can you prove it to us?
M: This one is taller than the five because the five is shorter and the nine is bigger.
19
Grade 6 Example: Identifying points on a number line
M: Since we already knew that three-fifths would be smaller than three-fourths we would put it more to the left of it (three-fourths) and since we knew that three-fourths was more to the left of A, it would mean that was less, so we knew three-fifths couldn’t be it because it was less than A.

High Quality Math Talk
“Our goal is not to increase the amount of talk in our classrooms, but to increase the amount of high quality talk in our classrooms—the mathematical productive talk.”
–Classroom Discussions: Using Math Talk to Help Students Learn, 2009

Comparing Math Tasks
22
What are the important elements of mathematical tasks that promote
thinking, reasoning, and communication?
23
Asking Essential Questions
What do we want our students to know and understand about money?
24
Asking Essential Questions
Money Task 1 I have pennies, dimes, and nickels in my pocket. If I take three coins out of my pocket, what are the different amounts of money I could have taken?
25
1. Solve individually, then share your strategies and solutions with your group.
2. Record your strategies and solutions.
•
Money Task 2 I have four coins. I have one penny, two nickels, and one quarter. How much money do I have?
26
1. Solve individually, then share your strategies and solutions with your group.
2. Record your strategies and solutions.
Group Task
• How are the tasks alike and different?
• How do the tasks compare to the criteria for a worthwhile task?
27
Comparing Tasks
28
Money Task #1 I have pennies, dimes, and nickels in my pocket. If I take three coins out of my pocket, what are the different amounts of money I could have taken?
Money Task #2 I have four coins. I have one penny, two nickels, and one quarter. How much money do I have?
Knowledge: Conceptual vs. Procedural
Conceptual Knowledge consists of well-defined concepts, more informal mathematical ideas, and relationships among ideas, concepts, and skills.
Procedural Knowledge involves knowledge of facts, symbols, rules, and procedures.
29
PG page 10
“It is possible to have procedural knowledge of a topic and to have little or no conceptual knowledge.
However, without knowledge of the important concepts and ideas, it is impossible to truly understand that topic.”
–Classroom Discussions: Using Math Talk to Help Students Learn, 2009
30
Knowledge: Conceptual vs. Procedural
Distinguishing Cognitive Levels of Tasks
• Low-cognitive-level tasks
• High-cognitive-level tasks
31
Features of Low-Level Tasks
• Involve memorization or reproduction
• Focus on finding the answer rather than developing understanding
• Rarely require explanation beyond a description of procedure
32
Features of High-Level Tasks
• They require more of students than simply remembering a fact or reproducing a skill.
• Students can learn by answering the questions, and the teacher can learn about the students from their responses.
• There may be several acceptable answers and/or several methods to obtain the answer.
